IDC is the latest of the analyst firms to push its predictions for 2007 out the door, and pretty interesting reading they make too: particularly the prediction that Microsoft’s anti-piracy efforts could boost Linux adoption.

Meanwhile, IDC seems to have had a slight difference of opinion with itself about the potential impact of Microsoft’s Vista.
